President Joe Biden’s campaign released a list of 78 “accomplishments” mocking former President Donald Trump on his birthday on Friday, taunting the former president.
The list promoted a “bloodbath hoax” in which Trump said radical electric vehicle policies under a second Biden term would wreak economic disaster on the American auto industry.
Mainstream media and the Biden campaign were quick to take Trump’s comments out of context, falsely claiming he was threatening “political violence.”
“Donald Trump would be the first presidential candidate to say there would be a ‘bloodbath’ if he lost,” reads one bullet point on the first page of the Biden campaign’s Trump birthday list. was Posted by X POLITICOAdam Wren.

The page also includes two false claims that President Trump has “suggested that Americans inject themselves with bleach” during the coronavirus pandemic. The mischief of the “respectable people” of Charlottesville.
Breitbart News has previously reported that the bleach claims are false.
Trump has never told anyone to inject bleach, much less into their arm, nor has he told anyone to swallow bleach, another Democrat tactic. On Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) falsely claimed that Trump told people to “swallow Clorox.”
As Breitbart News points out, and as the White House press conference transcript confirms, Trump Discuss Experimental ultraviolet light technology will be used in the future to disinfect surfaces and eliminate the coronavirus. Ultraviolet light technology is already being used to disinfect offices and other spaces. President Trump has openly wondered whether it would be possible to “inject” ultraviolet light into the body, a technology currently under development and reported in the media a few days ago.
When asked a follow-up question about whether he thought disinfectant should be “injected into people,” Trump replied, “It’s not an injection. We’re talking about pretty much cleaning and disinfecting a place.”
Regarding the Charlottesville hoax, the list states, “Donald said there were ‘very fine people’ among the crowd of white supremacists and neo-Nazis who were chanting, ‘The Jews will not replace us in Charlottesville.'”
Joel Pollack, a senior editor at Breitbart News, fact-checked the claim in August 2020 and found it to be “false” after Biden said Trump had called the neo-Nazis in Charlottesville “very fine people.”

Pollack pointed out:
President Trump repeatedly condemned the neo-Nazis in Charlottesville “totally” in August 2017.
Moreover, neo-Nazis were not the only violent group in Charlottesville: the “clash” was not with people peacefully “opposing” hatred, but with violent, black-clad Antifa extremists.
By “very fine people,” Trump was referring to peaceful protests for and against the removal of statues of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
In addition to the false rumours, the Hill noted that the Biden campaign’s list also listed Trump’s felony convictions in a New York business records trial.

“Happy birthday, Donald. You are a fraud, a failure, a charlatan and a threat to our democracy, our economy, our rights and our future,” he said.
